lyrics

Seeping serotonin slips
Its jolly way away from here
Levelling words of misery
Drift like echoes searching for an ear
 
The sun has set and the wind gusts across the water

The whispers crawl like a plague over the sails and deck
The dark water growls and bares its teeth
 
The world’s the same but somehow shifted
Crooked mirrors and shrunken size
His happiness drained with the blood from his face
As he heard the news his son had died

about

Roger Hammond Amsterdam, Netherlands

Based near Amsterdam. I write, play guitar, sing and record. I try to write interesting lyrics and occasionally I think they are.
